Trail running tours

We offer trail running tours services for people that like to exercise and enjoy nature at the same time. While you are on the go, you get to explore the environment and our tours make sure that you enjoy the best of each season. We combine running and traveling for people who have integrated running to their lifestyle and want to experience what Iceland has to offer.

Do we run the whole time during the tour?

No. We do stop by interesting places along the way, so please bring your camera!

How can I know if a tour is suitable for me?

Difficulty level varies between tours. All of our tours in Iceland and Faroe Islands are completely or partially on trail so some experience with trail running is always required. All of our tours in Greenland are technically difficult and only suitable for experienced runners.

How many guides are there on a running/hiking tour?

Depending on the pace of each individual and how the group is put together if there will be one or two guides.

How far in advance do I need to book?

Some of our tours tend to fill up around March but booking is confirmed with payment of 20% confirmation fee.

What will the accommodation be like?

We offer tours with accommodation in huts and other tours with accommodation in hotels. In the hotels there are single, double or twin rooms with bathrooms in 3-4 start hotels. In the mountain huts everybody is in one big room.

How many participants are there on each running/hiking tour?

This depends on each tour but most of the time there are around 4 – 10 people on each tour.
